Mountain bike fork and front wheel alignment ?


I have a mongoose otero elite 07 which uses a suntour xcm fork. Recently I've changed my wheels to mavic crossride and i just realised that the wheel is not located in the mid line of the fork and its around 6mm more on one side than the other which made my front tyre uneven! Is that a normal situation or not.

*My fork and wheel is normal .. not bent !

The wheel is off center. Take it to a shop to have it corrected BEFORE you ride.
